New in my Etsy shop!

Corazon de mi Amor",  encaustic, Copyright 2010 JonesMoore

I have just finished this piece and posted it on Etsy. I recently sold two of these encaustic pieces, also using heart 'milagro' images. I 'm having a lot of fun creating these, and will soon be doing eyes, hands, mouths, and more! "Milagro" means "miracle" in Spanish, and you see many of these litttle tin 'body parts' throught Mexico and Latin America. The families use them to aid in their prayers for loved ones who are ill. I love the idea of creating these 'little miracles' in wax...

NEW Spring art workshops!

I have just posted all of my new Spring art workshops in the sidebar, with links for more information and registration. In April and May, I will be teaching BEESWAX COLLAGE: CELEBRATE SPRING (collage with warm beeswax), THE PAINTED PAGE: CELEBRATE MAY (free-form collage books), and CABINET OF CURIOSITIES (artistic assemblage).

These workshops all take place in the greater Seattle area. Get a friend to sign up with you, and make a weekend out of it! If you are coming from out of town, I can direct you to some wonderful places to visit in the Seattle area! April and May are GORGEOUS months to be here, and everything will be in bloom...

Journal page: empty spaces

"I am alone in the woods. I am the woods. 

I stand tall...among my family. 

I am the tallest, strongest tree–

closest to the center. 

The ground–white, snowy...

I am the snow

I am a blank page."

It's here.

Another beeswax milagro in the works...

This is the third piece in my "Milagro" (Miracle) series. It has been such a pleasure to scribe lines in to slightly warm beeswax! The poem underneath the heart image is called "El Amor" and was written in 1935 by Luz Maria Durand.

Please take the time to visit my Etsy shop, where I have more of these 'little miracles' for sale!
